Hi,

I wanted to get another 4gb ram to increase my overall computer experience

I want to know if this ram is compatible with my mobo

The ram is completely compatible. It will work. Ideally be sure your buying the exact same ram as your current ram to help minimize any weird behaviour.

For future reference, you can look it up by viewing the motherboard's user manual online, and looking for the model of RAM you want. That being said, most vanilla unbuffered RAM kits will not have compatibility issues, like the old DDR3 kit you are looking at.

EDIT
That memory kit looks pretty shady as it is, so run memtest at boot as soon as you can

Adding new memory to old memory does not always work. Sometimes it works perfectly. Sometimes it will appear to be working, and then starts causing random lockups, random errors, or sometimes it can cause random reboots. And sometimes the computer will just refuse to boot up when there are 2 different sticks of memory that were not from a 2 stick kit.

I would rather see you buy a 2 stick kit, and replace the memory that you have now with the new memory.

The best chance of working with the memory you already have is if it matches the memory you currently have in speed (1333), power draw (1.35v/1/5v are both listed here), and the CL, which is not shown on this memory.

The other thing that bothers me is that flipkart shows 4 reviews on this memory, and 3 of them only gave 1 star, but no matter how you try to read the 4 reviews, only 2 will come up. So only a single 5 star rating, and 3 one star ratings does not inspire confidence.
